I am not as familiar with the digital details of photographs, but I do know a hard-hitting image when I see one. This image was taken by Kay Lahusen, partner of Barbara Gittings. John E. Fryer's discussion about why it was necessary for him, as a gay psychiatrist, to wear such a disguise in front of his professional colleagues was a significant factor in homosexuality being removed from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual in 1973. I would appreciate any feedback you can give me on the image. I'm concerned with the size, but I'm unsure how to make it larger without distorting it.

  • This picture is IMO a little too small for FP, even considering its historical value, and unfortunately, there is no way to make the picture bigger w/out you, or someone else, providing a completely new, higher resolution scan. On a side note, it is also tilted. --Malachirality (talk) 01:32, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the note. I'll see if I can search for a better one. --Moni3 (talk) 15:33, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
